I too have been very happy with these tires. I rotate every 5k and managed to get 26k on the original Pirelli Rossos. I put on a set of Kumhos, which lasted 38k. When those wore out I put on another set, which have been on for ~13k.
I find the ride, handling, and noise to be very good. The Pirellis had superb grip, but the Kumhos are very good - the car handles great. The snow performance is merely adequate. I live in MD so we only get a handful of real snowy days each year. Treadlife has proven to be excellent for this type of tire.
A Tirerack comparo showed that these tires can be favorably compared with comparable Pirellis and Continentals, at a considerably lower cost.
